I love fall and my hubby and I was running some errands this past weekend and saw these gigantic mums from afar in vibrant colours. We had to stop and take another look and the mums just so happen to be 3 for $18 at this local nursery. This was a weekend of great deals!
The mums we had bloomed in April and our yellow mums unusually bloomed the whole summer so this is a good year for mum planting.
Purple mums
Oh the colour! Doesn’t it make you smile, I know it does. Come on smile!
Vibrant Orange blooms
The mums we bought from our nursery were a really good size.
Rose Blush mum
Tip
A mum is a perennial so if you want it to last year after year you have to take it out of the pot it came in and plant it in the ground. Cut the leaves once the entire plant turns brown around December or so.

The flowers on this day were simply beautiful. Gorgeous and it was even better that my hubby and I were planting the mums together.
Nice pictures of flowers… I can look at those any day. 🙂 Have a good weekend.
Thanks so much, you have a good weekend too.
